The YMCA came to Poland in 1919 with Polish military units from the West as a humanitarian and welfare mission of the American YMCAs. In 1923 the Polish YMCA was officially inaugurated and the first National Assembly took place. The YMCA outreach programme helped the poor, the illiterate, the hungry and the out-of-work. During the IIWW Polish YMCA served Polish troops and refugees in 18 countries of Europe, the Middle East and Africa. After the war YMCA continued to work in Poland until it was closed down by the communists in 1949 and the property was taken over by the government. Polish YMCA was emerged just after the downfall of communism in Poland in 1990.
